early morning wakeup calls, you can advertise breakfast at your coffee shop. For afternoon wakeup calls, you can advertise dinner at your restaurant. These announcements are recorded using the Announcement circuit pack and are assigned manually to wakeup calls when the wakeup calls are scheduled using the attendant console or a backup telephone.
There are many other ways you can use recorded announcements, For example, you can announce special events at the hotel or announce the dinner menu at the restaurant, or you can create a fixed set of recorded announcements that you can change as needed.

Messages provided by the Speech Synthesizer circuit pack are fixed in content and cannot be changed.
